South City Kitchen Midtown Brings Out Your Southern Drawl

June 6, 2011 By Andrea

South City Kitchen Midtown Atlanta

Anyone who grows up in Northern Virginia, like I did, will argue that it should be a separate state from Virginia. Most of us claim that we are Northerners when we venture down to the South, regardless of where the Mason-Dixon line lies. Sweet tea and Chick-fil-a didn't even reach our area until just a few years ago. Ever since I have moved south, I have started embracing the hospitable culture, especially the food. The South City Kitchen Midtown has once and for all convinced me to embrace the … [Read more...]

The Brickery Bar & Grill | Burgers, Beer, & Much More!

The Brickery Sandy Springs

So you just threw dinner into the oven, got distracted with other household chores and before you know it something smells like burnt lasagna.  It is burnt lasagna, and by the time you smelled the burning and realized it, it was too late.  Frustrated, you take the charred dinner out of the oven while trying not to curse at your pet, because your significant other is on the phone talking about how hungry they are.  Your dinner night in has now turned into going out, and while you love Taco Mac … [Read more...]

{three} sheets in Sandy Springs

The great thing about living in Atlanta is that there are a bunch of cities combined into one.  Whether you are in Midtown, Decatur, Buckhead, or College Park, you can find some great local places to go eat.  Some of us don’t live inside the Perimeter, but we still reap the benefits of living in the greater Metro-Atlanta area.  There are still many great restaurants right outside the city that give off the feel of a great night out.  My most recent find was {three} sheets in Sandy … [Read more...]

Downtown Decatur Date Night at Parker’s on Ponce

May 4, 2011 By Andrea

Parker's on Ponce - Downtown Decatur

Whenever you move to a new place it takes some time get your bearings.  You have to find the grocery store, your favorite gas station, and even the local Target, but most importantly you have to weed out those favorite spots to eat.  Luckily, when I moved to Atlanta I found a guy who somehow knows all the best places to eat.  Atlanta has so many nice restaurants, you honestly never have to stop into a chain restaurant again!  My favorite date spot so far, although hard to choose, is Parker’s on … [Read more...]

Comfort Found at Cook-Out

April 3, 2011 By Andrea

One summer when I was home from college I went through serious Cook-Out withdrawals.  I mentioned it to my Mom and she immediately fired up the grill to cook some hot dogs and hamburgers.  She didn’t understand that I was not talking about having a cook out in the backyard.  I was talking about one of the best kept fast food secrets in North Carolina. Cook-Out is a drive-through restaurant that began in the same town as my Alma Mater, Greensboro.  They specialize in Carolina barbecue made … [Read more...]
